1 Girl. 4 Covers.

 

Usually I don't believe in coincidence. But unless four different editors from four different magazines in four magazines are being held hostage by Marion Cotillard's publicist, the what you're about to see is just wild.

Exhibit A: above is the August 2012 SA ELLE cover.

Exhibit B: below is the August 2012 US ELLE cover - released on the same day as the SA ELLE one.

 

And here she is again on UK Marie Claire August 2012...

 

And finally, the August 2012 Paris VOGUE cover.

You're probably tired of staring at her face by now. So here's something I'm REALLY excited about: a first look at the AW12 ELLE COLLECTIONS cover. Can't wait!

Kate Moss Covers Vogue

We have our new UK Vogue cover. Usually, Vogue reserves a Kate Moss cover for a special occasion like a collection or fashion issue. This time is no different: it's Olympics time in the UK and it looks like VOGUE is ready to celebrate.

 

It's her THIRTY SECOND British Vogue Cover (don't even wanna know about her overall Vogue count) and this time round she's wearing Versace SS12 and photographed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

Obviously there's nothing wrong with the cover, but I can't call it a favourite. Just a personal taste issue. When it comes to a Kate Moss cover (many props to her for her versatility) I still love the August 2011 UK VOGUE (BELOW). And then there is that December 2011/January 2012 Paris Vogue cover (also by Mert and Marcus) which is just... Awesome. So, which is your favourite?

Fashion Editors ♥ Prada

As proud as we are of the Prada SS12 campaign here in South Africa because of local model Katryn Kruger, Prada’s advertising is proving to be almost unnecessary. The February covers FOUR major fashion magazines all feature ladies in wonderful Prada ensembles.

It doesn’t come as much of a surprise to me. If you look at each one of these covers you’ll see the clothes make a strong impression and often bring out the personality of the cover star. I look forward to seeing more of these.

(It’ll no doubt be very interesting to see which designer dominates the March fashion issues. Stay tuned.)
